Sara Teasdale - Central Park at Dusk

2014-11-07 18 Dailymotion

Buildings above the leafless trees
Loom high as castles in a dream,

While one by one the lamps come out
To thread the twilight with a gleam.

There is no sign of leaf or bud,
A hush is over everything--

Silent as women wait for love,
The world is waiting for the spring.

Sara Teasdale
